Without a WebStorm community edition, like almost everyone else, I'll simply use VS Code in my talks, thus moving students and attendees farther away from JetBrains.įwiw, I have a full, every-tool-included, annual JetBrains subscription, so I'm not saying this to save a few bucks myself. I'll never send them to a non-GA, EAP version and hope that everything is stable enough for them not to stumble because of an unreleased tool. I understand there are ways to work around this, as the answer above shows, but again, that would never be a 'trick' I'd recommend to an audience. This represents lost mindshare.Īs someone who does these talks and who is planning to post some online videos and training, I simply cannot expect someone to shell out money for a tool to use in the class or to follow along in a presentation. In fact, I'm not sure I've ever seen a conference talk or YouTube tutorial that used WebStorm.

I can't count the number of online classes, YouTube videos, conference demos, and other presentations I've seen over the last year that used the free VS Code IDE. I think it's a mistake not to have a community edition for WebStorm.
